I took Jack outside today when what I think was his mother or else his mate kept looking for him bellow my window. I set him down on the grass and left him alone for half an hour, while I cleaned his cage and let it dry. My dog kept a distant watch over him at my insistence. I hope when my dog and I left him out front for fifteen minutes he got his good byes...
I decided I would keep him today. Thus, why I started the blog. I discovered right before I let him go that his eyes were cloudy. I don't mean a slight film, but a dark thunderstorm. He is almost completely blind. All he can see is light. I think its why he sleeps irregularly. He's not ever positive when its night or day.
He's starting to settle in. I feel rather bad that my dog caught him for me today. Poor thing was more then a bit scared understandably. No worries though. He wasn't harmed. One feather had been slightly ruffled but, thats it. My dog has very soft lips and not a mean bone in her body. She thinks he's neat.
I've made his little home on the bottom of the cage. Its sad, I've seen him sitting in front of the mirror. I gave it to him the first day and now I just let him have it,since I think he likes the perch for it. He has a water bowl for bathing even. Hopefully, he'll figure out to use it. When I caught him today I noticed the bottom of his tail was yellow. I feel so bad for him... But he has lots of food and I make sure I give him some type of green once a day.
